Progress made by Indian Railways
1. Priority has been assigned to conversion of meter gauge

lines into broad gouge. Railways tracks are electrified.
2. Steam engines have been replaced by diesel and electrical
engines.
3. Railways have specialized themselves in carrying over long
distances heavy and bulky goods including containers.

4. Fast moving trains and public amenities at railway station is
introduced. Railway made a significant problem in the area of
track replacement. Rajdhani and Shatabdi trains are
introduced.
5. At present, the railways comprise three gauges-broad
(1.675m), meter (1.000m) and narrow (0.762m). Efforts are
being made to convert meter gouge track to broad gauge
track.
ROAD TRANSPORT
Road transport is most suitable for short
and medium distance where other means
are unable to reach.
 It provides door-to-door service , which is
not possible with other means.
 It is the most promising means of
agricultural and industrial advancement of a
country.
 Today , it occupies a predominant position
in the transport network in the country.

ROAD TRANSPORT
Roads are classified into following 4 categories
1. National highways - These roads links large
cities and big industrial centers.
2. State Highways
- These roads connects all
important centres of industry, trade as well as
commerce of the state and also national
highways.
3. District Roads - These roads connect different
parts of district , important industrial centres,
important railway station.
4. Rural Roads- These are found in villages both
pucca or Metalled and kutch or Non-Metalled.

Road development in India
India has one of the largest road networks in the
world, aggregating to about 33.14 lakh km at present.
 However, this network is not adequate for speedy
and efficient transportation.

Important initiatives in the road
sector.
1. The National Highway Development project

(NHDP)
Deals with building high quality highways.
 The NHDP is largest highway project
ever
undertaken by the country and is being
implemented by the National Highway Authority of
India (NHAI).
2. Pradhan Mantri Bharat Jado pariyojana (PMBJP )Deals with linking up major cities to the NHDP
highways.
3. Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY )It addresses the rural roads.
WATER TRANSPORT
Water transport are cheapest method of shipping heavy ,
low value , non – perishable goods .
Water transport can be divided into 2 categories.
1.
Inland water transport
It includes natural modes such as navigable rivers and
artificial modes.

India has about 14,500 kms of navigable waterways.

Development of IWT commenced from second five
year plan –total outlay was around rs.34cr.

Further rs.903cr was alloted for IWT in one tenth
plan.

Again, in 11th plan period three more waterways are
proposed to be added to include coverage of
additional 4,500km.
2. Shipping – it is divided into 2 categories.
(a)Coastal shipping (b) Overseas shipping
(a)Coastal shipping –
 India has a longest coastline of 7,517 km,
number of ports,
 12 major and 200 non-major ports besides a
vast hinterland

It is the most energy efficient and cheapest
mode of transport for carriage of bulky goods
like iron and steel, coal , iron ore , timber , etc
over long distance.
(b) Overseas shipping In this case, due to international trade
considerable attention has been paid to
raise shipping tonnage during planning
era.
 As a result, the share of Indian shipping in
the transportation of India’s overseas
trade has slowly and consistently
increased in the planning period.
 Presently, almost 90 percent of the
country’s trade volume is moved by sea.
PORTS
In India, there are 12 major ports and
200 non-major ports along the coastline.
 Major ports direct responsibility of
central government while non-major
ports are managed and administrated by
the respective state government.
 Further a major port project of Nhava
sheva was sanctioned of an estimated
cost of rs. 592 cr .

AIR TRANSPORT
Air transport is most modern ,quickest as well as latest edition
to the mode of transport.
 Airports are managed by the Airports Authority of India (AAI).
Efforts are on to provide with the latest scientific technology
to ensure passengers safety and quick handling of passengers
and freight traffic.



In India, government first decided to air routes in 1920
between
Mumbai and kolkata
Kolkata and Rangoon
Subsequently, during 10th plan period an expenditure of rs.
12,928 cr was provided to the ministry of civil Aviation out
of which rs.7,792cr was spent.
Further ,in 11th plan rs.43,560 cr was kept aside as total
projected outlay.
PROBLEMS OF AIR TRANSPORT IN INDIA
1. There are a small number of industrial and
business centers as compared to the size of the
country.
 2.
Heavy goods can’t be transported from one
place to another by aero planes.
 3.
The cost of aviation petrol is very high
resulting in the high cost of operation and making
air travel beyond the reach of middle classes.
 4.
The components and spare parts of the
aero planes are imported from other countries.
This has impeded the growth of civil aviation of
the country.

At present, the railways comprise three gauges-broad (1.675m), meter (1.000m) and narrow (0.762m). Efforts are being made to convert meter gouge track to broad gauge track.
  • 14. ROAD TRANSPORT Road transport is most suitable for short and medium distance where other means are unable to reach.  It provides door-to-door service , which is not possible with other means.  It is the most promising means of agricultural and industrial advancement of a country.  Today , it occupies a predominant position in the transport network in the country. 
  • 15. ROAD TRANSPORT Roads are classified into following 4 categories 1. National highways - These roads links large cities and big industrial centers. 2. State Highways - These roads connects all important centres of industry, trade as well as commerce of the state and also national highways. 3. District Roads - These roads connect different parts of district , important industrial centres, important railway station. 4. Rural Roads- These are found in villages both pucca or Metalled and kutch or Non-Metalled. 

  • 20. WATER TRANSPORT Water transport are cheapest method of shipping heavy , low value , non – perishable goods . Water transport can be divided into 2 categories. 1. Inland water transport It includes natural modes such as navigable rivers and artificial modes.  India has about 14,500 kms of navigable waterways.  Development of IWT commenced from second five year plan –total outlay was around rs.34cr.  Further rs.903cr was alloted for IWT in one tenth plan.  Again, in 11th plan period three more waterways are proposed to be added to include coverage of additional 4,500km.
  • 21. 2. Shipping – it is divided into 2 categories. (a)Coastal shipping (b) Overseas shipping (a)Coastal shipping –  India has a longest coastline of 7,517 km, number of ports,  12 major and 200 non-major ports besides a vast hinterland  It is the most energy efficient and cheapest mode of transport for carriage of bulky goods like iron and steel, coal , iron ore , timber , etc over long distance.
  • 22. (b) Overseas shipping In this case, due to international trade considerable attention has been paid to raise shipping tonnage during planning era.  As a result, the share of Indian shipping in the transportation of India’s overseas trade has slowly and consistently increased in the planning period.  Presently, almost 90 percent of the country’s trade volume is moved by sea.
  • 23. PORTS In India, there are 12 major ports and 200 non-major ports along the coastline.  Major ports direct responsibility of central government while non-major ports are managed and administrated by the respective state government.  Further a major port project of Nhava sheva was sanctioned of an estimated cost of rs. 592 cr . 

Further ,in 11th plan rs.43,560 cr was kept aside as total projected outlay.
  • 25. PROBLEMS OF AIR TRANSPORT IN INDIA 1. There are a small number of industrial and business centers as compared to the size of the country.  2. Heavy goods can’t be transported from one place to another by aero planes.  3. The cost of aviation petrol is very high resulting in the high cost of operation and making air travel beyond the reach of middle classes.  4. The components and spare parts of the aero planes are imported from other countries. This has impeded the growth of civil aviation of the country. 
